How do I calculate how much space I need?

Capturing video from VHS to edit and convert to digital media. Using Blackmagic Thunderbolt Extreme interface. Video is uncompressed when captured. Don't know how much space I need on HD. I have a dozen tapes ranging from 60-90 minutes. Need to capture and return tapes prior to taking time to edit. (Local event, not pirating).

I think I'll have to try DV instead, a 1TB won't hold them all. Hmmm...
Thanks for the info.

  • HT1766 Restore backup function says there is not enough space on my iPhone to restore backup. How do I fix this/how do I know how much space I need on my iPhone?

    My family member's iPhone recently erased all of its contact information, with no action taken by my family member. She is trying to use the restore backup function to recover her contacts.
    The restore backup functions says that there is not enough space on my iPhone to restore backup. How do I fix this/how do I know how much space I need to complete this backup?
    We have removed the majority of pictures from her phone, and she has 4.1 GB of memory free.
    Thank you!

    You need at least as much space as you have used on the iPod. Could be as much as 64 GB but is probably much less.
    Find a way to delete what you do not need on the computer. Start by emptying the Recycle Bin.

  • How do I determine how much space is needed to backup my contacts?

    I'd like to figure out how much space I need in order to backup my contacts to icloud.

    iCloud contacts are not part of the iCloud backup, they are just stored in iCloud and synced between your devices.

  • Is how can I calculate how many transition​s are inside an array?

    Let’s assume that we have an array of 582 elements. Some of them are above 4 and some of them are below 1,let’s also say that values who are above 4 are equal to True (1) and the values below 1 are equal to False (0). The question is how can I calculate how many transitions are inside the array from 1 to 0?How many peaks I have? Can please someone suggest a code solution for that?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    If you only care about actual transitions and not the type of them, I'm a fan of the simple XOR.

  • How much space i need to install ECC EhP 4

    Hello all,
      Can any body let me know the space required to install ECC 6 EhP 4 (new package). If any body can provide some steps to follow that would be very nice.

    > thanks for ur prompt reply, i read that i need to install Ehp 1 for netweaver 7.0 for atleast AS Abap.
    No - EHP1 for Netweaver 7.00 is included in EHP4 for ERP 6.0.
    EHP1 for Netweaver cannot be installed on ERP 6.0.
    I know, this is all VERY confusing.
    > for ur information i have 64 bit OS(windows server 2003).
    good!
    > can you tell me where to check netweaver package level in SAP i am pretty much sure its 7.0.
    ERP 6.0 is based on Netweaver 7.0 (System - Status - check component SAP_BASIS).

  • How much space is needed?!?!

    I uploaded my music to my Nano, and I had about 28mb's left over, and it still wouldn't let me download 3 pictures to it. They're small pictures too. I tried loading them first, which worked, then uploaded my music. The pics only took up 1 mb, then when my music was finished it said theres no room for your photos, when theres clearly lots of room for them. I don't understand how to get around this.

    I find Digital Heaven's VideoSpace dashboard widget to be very handy.

  • How do I calculate how many days are left in a month?

    I'm trying to figure out a way to do this to make a payment apportion using the days left. One of the problems lies in the date being dynamic, since I'm using "whatever today's date is" and it actualizes by day. Any help will be appreciated.

    Using some reusable document level scripts for general functions like getting a field object, a date object from a string, and the number of days in a month one could have a script like:
    // document level functions;
    function GetField(cName) {
    // return the field object for named field;
    // with error checking;
    var oField = this.getField(cName); // get field object;
    // test for error getting field;
    if(oField == null){
    // error accessing field;
    app.alert("Error accessing field " + cName);
    // return field object;
    return oField;
    } // end GetField object;
    function GetDateObject(cFormat, cDate) {
    // get the date object for date cDate with format of cFormat;
    var oDate = util.scand(cFormat, cDate);
    if(oDate == null) {
    app.alert("Error converting date " + cDate + " with format " + cFormat, 0, 0);
    return oDate;
    } // end GetDateObject function;
    function DaysInMonth(cFormat, cDate) {
    // return last day of month;
    var oDate = GetDateObject(cFormat, cDate);
    var StartDate = oDate.getDate(); // get day from date object;
    // set date object to 1st of next month;
    oDate.setMonth(oDate.getMonth() + 1, 1);
    // set date object to pervious date;
    oDate.setDate(oDate.getDate() - 1);
    // get last day of month;
    return oDate.getDate();
    } // end DaysInMonth function;
    // end document level functions;
    // custom calculation script;
    // check for needed functions;
    if(typeof GetField != "function") app.alert("Missing GetField function!", 0, 0);
    if(typeof GetDateObject != "function") app.alert("Missing GetDateObject function!", 0, 0);
    if(typeof DaysInMonth != "function") app.alert("Missing DaysInMonthh function", 0, 0);
    // some specific data to get value from field;
    var cDateName = "MyDateField"; // name of date field;
    var cDateFormat = "dd-mmm-yyyy"; // format of date field;
    // end specific data;
    // get date field object;
    var oDateField = GetField(cDateName);
    // get the string value for the date;
    var cDateValue = oDateField.value;
    // convert date value to date object;
    var oDate = GetDateObject(cDateFormat, cDateValue);
    var nStartDate = oDate.getDate(); // start date for computation;
    // the day for the last day of the month
    var nLastDayOfMonth = DaysInMonth(cDateFormat, cDateValue);
    var DaysToEndOfMonth = nLastDayOfMonth - nStartDate;
    event.value = DaysToEndOfMonth;
    // end custom calculation script;

  • Why is my internal memory so full? How can I find out what is the "other" that is taking up so much space?

    I'm not very tech-savvy. My iPhone is backed up on my computer and all my photos are in my computer. I'm going to send it away to have the screen fixed and the people from AppleCare recommended to back it up just in case. So, I am going to backup my computer for the first time since I bought it in mid 2011. I go see how much space I need and I see that I only have 15 GB of memory space left and this huge space being used up by "Other". I don't know if its because I updated it to Mavericks. How can I see what that is? Also, I've never downloaded movies so I don't know why that is also there. Please help ASAP!
    I added a photo.

    "Other" is everything that isn't in one of the other categories. For instance, it includes all your user documents that are not movie, audio, or photo files.
    Regardless of that, you need to use an external drive at least large enough to backup your entire user folder (the one with a House icon). Better is to get one at least as large as your built-in drive & use something like Carbon Copy Cloner or SuperDuper! to clone the whole built-in drive to it.

  • Garageband: How to fix a not enough space to download in app purchase error?

    I have 7GB free and when I try to download the in app purchases in Garageband 10 it tells me to free up space and try again, without even saying how much space I need. Anyone else having this problem and or knows what to do? How can I resolve this?
    Thanks

    you need to clear some space on your hard drive by deleting some files.  7 gigabytes is really a very low level of free space to begin with, a rule of thumb is to always have at least 10% - 15% of your hard drive available for the OS to use.
    i don't recall exactly how big the D/L is, but it might be 5-6 gigs (and you'd need at least twice that so the files have room to be unpacked)

  • How much external disk space is needed for editing HD video?

    If I'm using FCE:
    1) How much external disk space is needed for editing HD video:
    if I downloaded 150mins of HD video? and
    do editing with it which will have an output of 120mins.
    Now PC, going to a MAC user soon   Windows XP  

    Hi(bonjour)!
    As a rule of thumb for HDV editing, use those numbers:
    12 to 15 meg/second for capturing ( your project is 150 minutes long, so 780 meg/minute, or 117 to 125 Gig).
    If you do any editing, add transition, video effect, add 12 to 15 meg /second to the total.
    As your project will have to be rendered for the print to tape operation, calculate 12 to 15 meg/second for all the length of your final movie. Add this amount to the total. (example: a 60 minutes movie : 49 Gig).
    If you want to burn a DVD on your Mac, calculate 3 to 4 meg/second for downconversion to DV material if you check "self-contained" in quicktime export dialog. (example: your finished project is 60 minutes long : 10.8 Gig)
    iDVD itself needs 3 to 4 times this amount if you want flawless operation.
    Finally, if you use your internal hard disk for all this storage (it's not a good idea to capture on the same drive where Mac OS X belongs), your Mac OS needs some spare room to breath (doing caching, etc), and your hard drive must have a least 25% of free space to avoid file's fragmentation.
    As hard drive's price drop, get the maximum size you can afford. 250 Gig is a good choice if you want to do just one project of 90 to 150 minutes at the time.

  • How do I find how much space specific documents, applications, music files, etc. are taking up on my hard drive?

    I checked out my hard drive and found it is getting rather full.  Disk Utilities gives me an overall picture of how much disk space is being used and how much remains, but I'd like to find out which individual files may be hogging space.  The Finder window doesn't give that individual information.  I can find out how much space each item takes by clicking info on each, but there must be a more efficient way of finding this information simply by clicking on folders.

    Not free but this is one option.
